How Does it Work?

Humidifiers provide comfort by adding moisture 
to dry indoor air. The 

Stay Clean Humidifier

 uses 

ultrasonic technology. A ceramic diaphragm silently 
vibrates at a very high frequency to create droplets, 
producing a cool fog or mist. 

The humidifier should be placed with the mist 
outlets directed away from any nearby walls or 
furniture. 

Leaving humidifier plugged in with the LED light 
on allows for 24/7 sanitization. LED light operates 
separately from mist function and is safe to stay on.  
Mist function will not operate without enough water 
in the unit and the mist knob turned on. 

NOTE: If the tank is removed, all but 1 LED light 
will be off.  Once the tank is in place, all lights will 
illuminate. The recommended humidity level is 
between 35%-50%. A humidity level below 20% can 
be unhealthy and uncomfortable. 

Under normal conditions, it is preferable to use a 
lower setting on this humidifier. The mist might not 
be visible at a low setting. Only when the humidity 
level is extremely low should the higher settings be 
used. A white mist may be visible at higher settings 
and there is an increased risk of moisture damage, 
particularly to objects near the humidifier.
